Necessary materials:
- a sheet of paper measuring 20 x 20 cm for a bud;
- cocktail tube for stalk;
- scissors or clerical knife.
Important: to create a flower, it is better to choose more dense sheets, which during the folding process will not accidentally break in the area of the fold line.
How to make a tulip from paper - step by step instruction
To get a beautiful symmetrical flower with expressive graceful petals, folds should be carried out strictly along the intended lines, making them clear and sharp. Scheme.
The process of creating a spring flower includes several stages:
- Square billet for flower bud bend diagonally so that it looks like a triangle folded diagonally. We unfold the workpiece and perform the same operations with opposite corners. As a result, we obtain a square with folds in the form of the sign "X".
- Fold the workpiece in half and unfold it with a towering top to the top.
- Placed on both sides of the pyramid, the longitudinal folds are connected to the center so that a triangle with "pockets" is formed inside.
- The corners of both outer sides are bent, winding them to the top of the pyramid. As a result, we get the workpiece in the form of a diamond, which has a fold in the middle. If you look closely, we see four folded triangles.
- In the diamond-shaped workpiece, bend the right corner to the left side, turn it over and repeat the manipulations.
- Now we start the left corner, making it overlap a little further from the center line of the fold. We bend the right corner and tuck it in the left. The same procedure is performed on the other side of the diamond.
- The bud is almost ready. It remains, only supporting, for the vertices, collapsed into each other, to turn the figure.
- At the base of the flower make a hole through which we blow the bud. In the bulk bud open the petals, bending them down. In the opening of the flower base we pass the tube.
A tulip of paper with your own hands is ready. As you can see, the process of creating such a beautiful volumetric flower is very simple. And the result will be a long time to you and others to please.
